It’s estimated that around one in every 200 people has narcissistic personality disorder - a mental health condition that’s characterized by excessive self-centeredness and a preoccupation with one's own needs. These traits can put a strain on a narcissist's marriage, and so this book provides coping mechanisms for spouses like you who want to be happy while staying married to someone with this disorder.
Written by five female authors who have each been married to a narcissist, this five-book bundle shows you how you can navigate being married to a narcissist using the authors’ tried and tested advice. Throughout the book, you are offered coping mechanisms to deal with your spouse’s challenging behavior and are shown how to build back your self-worth and self-confidence.
In particular, you are shown how to overcome gaslighting, emotional abuse, co-dependency, and entitlement.
Explaining the value of this book, a spokesperson says, “The focus of this book is to give experienced advice to readers who have narcissistic spouses or life partners. Rather than advising women on how to leave their narcissistic partner (as most books tend to recommend), this book explains what coping skills you need to stay with your narc and be happy. With the help of five women who have lived experience of a narcissistic partner, you will learn to better cope with narcissistic behavior.”
The one aspect that sometimes (not always) comes with a narcissistic spouse or partner, though, is physical abuse. Neither the publisher nor the authors condone staying with a physically abusive partner. A narcissist who isn't physically abusive may be manageable. But a narcissist (or anybody else) who is prone to physical abuse is just bad news. The recommendation is to bid adios to anyone who is physically abusive.
Even nasty emotional abuse, if it's constant and tormenting, can be more than a person is worth sticking around for. This book may be useful in helping the reader decide if sticking around is a manageable option, or if the narc in your life is simply more than you can handle.
